Cc: allison AT sumeru DOT stanford DOT EDU I have a problem getting cygwin subsystems to be recognized and executed from outside the cygwin shell on a Windows2000 machine. I've set the path variable to include c:/cygwin/usr/local/bin;c:/cygwin/usr/bin;c:cygwin/bin;... but suspect this is not right. (What's the cygdrive path stuff?). The big problems have to do with the library paths. I haven't a clue where they are set. Is there documentation on setting up the pathing for cygwin? I did a cursory search and found nothing. The problem I have at hand is a Smalltalk based system which delegates some processing to a collection of C and Perl programs, waits around, and then uses the results of the computation. The problem I'm having has to do with getting the Perl and C programs to execute from a call outside of cygwin. The programs appear to function without problem when invoked from the cygwin shell. Thanks in advance. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
